We would like to make a request to use a temporary work platform in the Richardson Creek for the purpose of gaining access to interior bent 2. * A temporary work platform will be required for the excavation of five (5) three feet and six inch (311-611) diameter shafts. The platform will sevre as a work place for a drill rig as it excavates the shafts. * The platform will be constructed with precast concrete blocks (3rx3'x3') +/-, metal or timber mats or a fabricated metal cofferdam dam style ring and miscellaneous wooden cribbing. A combination of this material will be used based on existing water conditions. * The ramp will serve as a means to bridge the existing retaining wall. It is believed the existing wall will not sustain the larger loads that construction equipment will place on it. By providing a bridge we can distribute the load of the drill rig back to a sound bearing area. * The platform will be assembled and dismantled with the use of a crane as the work progresses along bent 2. All small equipment and materials associated with the work platform will be removed at the end of each day. r --j J 4?- ,IAN 24 1996 Spoil removal and dewatering of shafts. * As the shafts are being excavated the spoils will be removed to a suitable location (away from the waters edge) with the use of a crane and a skip pan. The work platform will support the skip pan while material is being placed in it. A permiable curtain will be suspended around active areas which will contain the sediment. * The dewatering of the shaft will be provided by the use of submersible pumps and hoses. The discharge hose will deposit the water into an approved sedimentation basin. As the shafts are excavated steel sleeves are placed into the open hole which contain the shaft water and separates it from the creek water. Placing Concrete into the shafts * At the time the shafts are ready for concrete, additional decking will be placed on the work platform. This is intended to increase the safe working area on the platform as well as to contain any fresh concrete from falling into the water. Again, the steel sleeve will be in place in the shaft and further protect the water from fresh concrete. Placing the Column Concrete/Form of Bent 2 * As is,noted on drawing number 42, the shaft is larger than the column by six (611) inches. Prior to placing the concrete for the column a sleeve will be placed, as needed, at the construction joint between the shaft and the column as a means to contain any slurry that may seep out of the form prior to its hardening. * The same concrete blocks or cofferdam style ring may be used temporarily to tie off the column forms while they are being poured. All material used at this location will be temporary and will be required for construction of the bent 2. Bent 3 will perhaps only require some concrete blocks at the waters edge as a means to support the column forms. As is noted on the plans , bent 3 is on the bank of the creek. Thank you for your cooperation on this matter and please call if you have any questions. Sincerel , Steven R.

ZIAN 24 1996 I Mr. B.F Strickland, Resident Engineer nUar-Y?22,1996 N.C.Department of Transportation Post Office Box 85 Monroe, North Carolina 28110 RE: NC 8.1690302 Request for an addendum to the Corp of Engineers Permit Dear Mr. Strickland, The following information is to inform the NCDOT of our intentions regarding the upcoming activity required to construct the 8.1690302 project. We would like to make a request to use a temporary work platform in the Richardson Creek for the purpose of gaining access to interior bent 2. * A temporary work platform will be required for the excavation of five (5) three feet and six inch (311-611) diameter shafts. The platform will sevre as a work place for a drill rig as it excavates the shafts. * The platform will be constructed with precast concrete blocks (31x31x31) +/-, metal or timber mats or a fabricated metal cofferdam dam style ring and miscellaneous wooden cribbing. A combination of this material will be used based on existing water conditions. * The ramp will serve as a means to bridge the existing retaining wall. It is believed the existing wall will not sustain the larger loads that construction equipment will place on it. By providing a bridge we can distribute the load of the drill rig back to a sound bearing area. * The platform will be assembled and dismantled with the use of a crane as the work progresses along bent 2. All small equipment and materials associated with the work platform will be removed at the end of each day. D Spoil removal and dewatering of shafts. * As the shafts are being excavated the spoils will be removed to a suitable location (away from the waters edge) with the use of a crane and a skip pan. The work platform will support the skip pan while material is being placed in it. A permiable curtain will be suspended around active areas which will contain the sediment. * The dewatering of the shaft will be provided by the use of submersible pumps and hoses. The discharge hose will deposit the water into an approved sedimentation basin. As the shafts are excavated steel sleeves are placed into the open hole which contain the shaft water and separates it from the creek water. Placing Concrete into the shafts * At the time the shafts are ready for concrete, additional decking will be placed on the work platform. This is intended to increase the safe working area on the platform as well as to contain any fresh concrete from falling into the water. Again, the steel sleeve will be in place in the shaft and further protect the water from fresh concrete. Placing the Column Concrete/Form of Bent 2 * As is•noted on drawing number 42, the shaft is larger than the column by six (611) inches. Prior to placing the concrete for the column a sleeve will be placed, as needed, at the construction joint between the shaft and the column as a means to contain any slurry that may seep out of the form prior to its hardening. * The same concrete blocks or cofferdam style ring may be used temporarily to tie off the column forms while they are being poured. All material used at this location will be temporary and will be required for construction of the bent 2. Bent 3 will perhaps only require some concrete blocks at the waters edge as a means to support the column forms. As is noted on the plans , bent 3 is on the bank of the creek. Thank you for your cooperation on this matter and please call if you have any questions. Sincerel , Steven R.

Box 25201 Raleigh, N.C. 27611-5201 Dear Mr. Vick: You have our approval to place fill material in waters for the purpose of replacing a tributary bridge on SR 1964 for road improvements to US 601, as you described in your application dated 7 July 1995. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 2732. This certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 14 when it is issued by the Corps of Engineers. This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If you change your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application. For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification. In addition, you should get any other federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your project. If you do not accept any of the conditions of this certification, you may ask for an adjudicatory hearing. You must act within 60 days of the date that you receive this letter. To ask for a hearing, send a written petition which conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of Administrative Hearings, P.O. Box 27447, Raleigh, N.C. 27611-7447. This certification and its conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing. This letter completes the review of the Division of Environmental Management under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. If you have any questions, please telephone/I@"omey at 919-733-1786.

No. R-2616C; State Project No. 8.1690301 Reference the 404 General Permit 31 issued June 5, 1995 and 401 Water Quality Certification issued June 22, 1995 for the above project. The permit application addressed a 0.28 acre wetland adjacent to Richardson Creek. At that time, we did not include information pertaining to a channel change upstream on a tributary to Richardson Creek. The attached plan drawing includes details of the SR 1964 re-alignment at its intersection with US 601. SR 1964 currently intersects with the existing US 601 at an angle. This road bridges a tributary to Richardson Creek. The flow rate of this stream is 410 cubic feet per second. Please note that the same tributary is culverted downstream prior to entering Richardson Creek. Concurrent with the US 601 widening, the interchange with SR 1964 is to be re-aligned. The existing bridge is to be replaced with one 16' X 7' reinforced concrete abutment. This work will also require a channel change of approximately 140 feet. No wetland fill will be associated with this work. It is anticipated that the proposed work may be authorized under Nationwide Permit No. 14 for Minor Road Crossings, 33 CFR 330.5(3). Application is hereby made for a Department of the Army permit as required for such activities. A site map is enclosed for your records. By copy of this letter, we are also requesting 401 Water Quality Certification by the Division of Environmental Management. q 5728 July 6, 1995 Page 2 If you have any questions, please contact Cyndi Bell in Raleigh at (919) 733-3141, Extension 306.

Traffic will be maintained on the existing bridge throughout construction. The new bridge will be 180 feet long with a vertical clearance three feet higher than the existing bridge. The proposed project will require fill in 0.28 acre of scrub/shrub emergent wetlands at one site in the vicinity of Richardson Creek. It is anticipated that the proposed project may be authorized under Nationwide Permit #14 for Minor Road Crossings, 33 CFR 330.5(3). Application is hereby made for a Department of the Army permit as required for such activities. A site map is enclosed for your records. By copy of this letter, we are also requesting 401 Water Quality Certification by the Division of Environmental Management.
